Ex-RNC Chair Michael Steele Names Only Truly ‘Unprecedented' Part Of Trump Case
Huff PostLOADING ERROR LOADING Michael Steele, a former chair of the Republican National Committee, on Thursday argued there is only one real “unprecedented” thing about Donald Trump’s classified documents case. Steele agreed with MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace, who said prosecutors had trodden extremely carefully and given Trump “a million chances” to avoid indictment by handing back the documents taken from the White House. “It’s not unprecedented that the FBI or the Department of Justice or any law enforcement agent or any attorney general or anybody else around the country in this space would respond the way they would respond if it wasn’t a president, right?” he asked. “There’s not going to be gnashing of teeth and writing memos inside of any agency to pick your behind up and bring you in, not just for questioning, but for booking and processing, right?” In Trump’s case, “the unprecedented part is a president did it,” he continued.
